United List: We have no plans to prop up an ailing coalition

Share

The opposition “United List” (AS) political grouping will not take part in any kind of negotiations regarding possible support or involvement in the current three-party coalition led by Evika Siliņa (New Unity), according to a press release by the party.

Recent days have seen some speculation in the corridors of power about differences within the coalition consisting of New Unity, the Progressives and the Greens and Farmers Union (ZZS) over issues including the way forward for the Rail Baltica project and choosing a governor for the central bank. While there has been no overt split as yet, the political rumour-mill has been running at full steam.

However, the head of the United List’s Saeima faction, Edgars Tavars, was adamant that his party would not dig the government out of a hole of its own making.
